Signing up the kiddo today and was asked about locking in tuition for 4 years or election of a variable rate. What's the recommendation here? Thanks -

Good point. Question is really about how COVID-19 might impact a variable tuition rate?

Locked tuition is higher than current variable, but variable can go up more than expected, making it cost more over 4 years than the locked rate.

All depends if you are the gambling kind
